Partial Characterisation and Colorimetric Characteristics of Sargassum sp. Colorant on Treated Polyester Fabric with Dendrimer

Abstract:

This study focuses on the characterization of pigment compounds presence in Sargassum sp. extracts. The ground powder of dry Sargassum sp. was macerated in in methanol solution at 60°C for 48 hours in an aluminium foil-wrapped conical flask (to provide the dark environment). The extracted colourant was measured with UV-vis Spectrophotometer and Q-TOF LCMS to determine the compounds presence. The extracted colourant also used to dye pretreated and untreated polyester fabric with poly(amidoamine) dendrimer at different concentrations with and without mordants. The exhaustion dyeing with the simultaneous mordanting procedure was carried at 85°C for 60 minutes. The colorimetric properties of the dyed fabrics were then analysed. The results showed that the pigment compounds presence in Sargassum sp. extracts is fucoxanthin and chlorophyll. The application of dendrimer improved K/S values of the dyed fabric. Thus, Sargassum sp. extract is suitable to be used as natural dyes for textile dyeing.
